Whilst we’re browsing the 80s Purple store, I thought I’d point you towards this hoodie. If you’re a really old school reader of HYA then you might remember me posting this hoodie in 2006 and 2007. The posts still get a surprisingly large amount of hits (usually from spammers), but its no longer on sale at the buy links on the old posts, so I thought I’d post this new link as 80s Purple still have stock, and because its still a pretty cool hoodie, the bullet on the zipper is a great touch. Oh, and its fake fur, in case you were wondering. I know that celebritee day has been and gone, but in the gallery there is a picture of Jessica Alba wearing this hoodie, which is, y’know, a thing.

I went to Helsinki for an afternoon once (I get around, don’t I?) and all I remember is a big church, eating reindeer carbonara, buying a reindeer rug that fell apart a few months later, and becoming sea sick… on land. We were on a cruise and when we got off at Helsinki I felt as if I was still on the boat, as if the ground was swaying from side to side like the ship was on the ocean, a very strange feeling indeed, and not one I’d want to repeat. Blurb by Mod Cloth:

Like something a Nordic pop star would wear, this printed hoodie by Heatherette has the plushest, richest faux-fur lining in the hood. Big pom poms, grey ribbed trim at the seams, and double breasted button detail add to the surprisingly cozy superstar appeal.

So, to those of you that have e-mailed me about faux-fur in the past, here you go.

Today’s item is very much out of the ordinary, and I applaud that whole-heartedly, I’m not going to post something just because it’s different, but there is something unique about this piece so I feel it deserves an airing on my corner of webspace.

Cardboard Robot has been rather bold and added fur to a hoody, not a jacket, it looks like a regular cotton zip-up hoody but then they go an confuse me by adding fur (faux, probably, hopefully?).

The design on the front is is realy nice too, spanning quite a lot of the front but still being quite understated.

I’ve just noticed something esle, is that a rifle bullet on the zipper, if it is then golly-gosh, that’s an excellent item of clothing. Also, it’s for girls, see, I’m trying to get the balance back.
